The Casa Healing Entities

Beings of Light and Love

John of God, or Medium Joao, channels healing Entities who are devoted to healing those who come seeking their assistance. In addition to the Entities that Medium Joao channels, there are a large additional number who assist in the healing in other ways. Many of the Entities connected to the Casa are saints.

​​​​​​St. Ignatius Loyola is the Entity for whom the Casa is named. Also frequently incorporating through John of God are St. Francis of Assisi, King Solomon, St. Francis Xavier, Dr. Augusto de Almeida, Dr. Jose Valdivino, and Dr. Oswaldo Cruz.
​
The Casa Entities each have different specialties. They support and supplement our energy so that healing of ailments, problems and illnesses of varying types can occur.

​​The Entities, who are highly evolved Beings of Light and Love, are able to understand the root causes of our issues and how to heal them in accordance with our highest good.

​​The Entities of Light and Love work with each person on all levels that are necessary – physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Healing occurs based on what a person asks for from the Entitities, as well as on the spiritual readiness of the soul.

“God freely created us so that we might know, love, and serve him in this life and be happy with him forever. God’s purpose in creating us is to draw forth from us a response of love and service here on earth, so that we may attain our goal of everlasting happiness with him in heaven.”

“Teach us to give and not to count the cost.”

~ St. Ignatius of Loyola

The Entities

St. Ignatius of Loyola

Luis Goncalves de Camara, one of his closest associates, wrote, “He (Ignatius) was always rather inclined toward love; moreover, he seemed all love, and because of that he was universally loved by all. There was no one in the Society who did not have great love for him and did not consider himself much loved by him.”​​
